FAQ - Indian Creek Historical Fashions

Welcome to the FAQ page for Indian Creek Historical Fashions. Here you will find answers to common questions about our custom Victorian Era gowns, living history programs, and historical sewing workshops.

What services does Indian Creek Historical Fashions offer?

Can I request a custom Victorian Era gown?

Yes, we can create the Victorian Era gown of your dreams.

 

What is the base price of your gowns? 

Unfortunately, this question is rather hard to answer. Because of the various clothing eras I offer, types of material you may want, trims, and of course amount of fabric requested, this can change prices dramatically. If fabric is supplied, then I simply charge my normal hourly fee, so that helps my customers with costs. My hourly fee is $25.00 per hour to sew any garments. The cost of fabric can range from $5.99 a yard for non-reproduction period fabric cottons, to $150.00 and up per yard, for fine silks or taffetas. Depending on the era desired, fabric length needed can be 6-12 yards of fabric per gown. All clothing is made using measurements supplied by the client. Please make sure to double check all measurements. We are not responsible for fitting issues.
